Question

"Do you know the way to station? " said I. Direct to indirect speech

Answer 1

Answer:

I asked if you knew the way to the station.

Answer 2

Answer:

I asked him/her if he/she knew the way to the station.

Explanation:

• Direct speech is that part of the sentence in which the exact words by the speaker spoken are described within speech/quotation marks.

• Indirect speech or reported speech tells us what the speaker said, but modifying the speaker's exact words and no quotation marks.

Here in the given sentence,

• Subject: I

• reporting verb: said

• Reported speech: "Do you know the way to station?" - interrogative sentence

So, the indirect speech of the sentence will be:

I asked him if he knew the way to the station.

Or,

I asked her if she knew the way to the station.
